Do not pad tabs from the top when maximized or fullscreen #2541

Closed

Description

Description of the new feature/enhancement

Edge and most other programs that use tabs where a menu bar is not present keep the tabs flush to the top of the screen rather than padding it down.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Make Terminal consistent with Edge Dev (ideally use the same code if possible) to render the tabs on top.

    They are aware of it, as it has been mentioned in #1375, under “Things related to tabs”

    where a menu bar is not present

    Edge (or Chrome for that matter) aren't responsible for it. Chromium is. Since Terminal isn't Chromium based, re-use can't happen. Incidentally, I (along with many others) would prefer a menu bar like IE in Edge. I actually opened a ticket for it on the Chromium bug tracker but will probably need more input on the bug tracker to get any type of action on it. Honestly a menu bar in Terminal would be great as well and I'm sure it will be addressed in #1375.

    Is there a reason why a padding must exists for a floating window?

    It's what every other commonly-used tabbed application has padding above the tabs for a drag/resize area, except for perhaps Firefox.

    @sjoshid

    Im using Chrome Edge and even in floating window there is enough gap to drag the window no matter how many tabs you add. And yes Firefox does it best.
